Description
The IC-M93D VHF Marine Radio from ICOM is the world’s slimmest buoyant DSC radio. This hand-held radio has a waterproof rating of IPX7, submersible to a 1 metre depth for 30 minutes.
Featuring a 2.3” large, high contrast and full dot-matrix LCD ensures good readability under direct sunlight. Large compass screens and large character size provide at-a-glance information.
For operators not familiar with DSC radio operation, the combination of the four directional keypad and soft keys provides straight-forward operation of all functions.
A dedicated DSC receiver continuously monitors CH70. Distress calls can be made with the rear panel button.
The IC-M93D floats and flashes on the water. Pressing the distress button while Float’n Flash is working will transmit the MOB distress signal, rather than the plain undesignated one for better protection of sailors.
The integrated GNSS receiver provides your location, bearing and speed with fast-setup time and pinpoint accuracy by using information from GPS, GLONASS, QZSS and SBAS.
Active Noise Cancelling digitally removes background noise from both transmit and receive audio and provides clear communication in a noisy maritime environment.
The supplied rapid charger, BC-220, charges the BP-285 in 2.5 hours (approximately).
